[Paraview] Paraview: python script from the command line

[Rick Angelini]

Utkarsh - this also works well under some circumstances, but leave it to 
the customers to figure out how to break it.   If we startup paraview:

paraview --server=Host --script=myscript.py

And "Host" is a reverse-connection, the python script executes locally 
without waiting for the remote server to start up.
